5 out of 5 stars Trumpet at it's best!.......2000-01-14

Sergei Nakarjakov is awesome! Everything about his playing is perfect. His tone and technical pursuits are amazing. Also amazing is that he takes technical show off piece like the Carnival of Venice and makes it MUSIC. The soul that is in this music is like nothing that I have ever heard and even if your not a trumpet player I would buy this album and as many other albums of Sergei Nakarjakov's as you could!

5 out of 5 stars It is something refreshing .......2005-05-05

This is a CD that you cannot find easily in the store. But Anton Arensky's paino concerto really brings us something refreshing. I like the Fantasia on Russian Folk Songs very much and I think this is truly a remarkable piece of Romantic music.

3 out of 5 stars one of the weakest in the series.......2003-03-10

It pains me to be the first to throw cold water on this particular fire, but after reading all the other glowing reviews here, I must ask: what is the big deal? One might agree that these pieces are indeed artistic creations, but where is the hand of the inspired creator?

I am a BIG fan of Hyperion's Romantic Piano Concerto series. As a whole this series has unearthed some real gems and given them new life through GREAT performances-but...

Not here.

With the exception of the mildly entertaining fantasia, I could take or leave this disc without much emotional involvement. There are some moments of lyricism and beauty to be found here. That said, most of this music is pasty, derivative, and underwhelming.

In any event, I do not feel this is the performer's fault. The conductor has given us three other more than solid entries in this series. Mr. Coombs (the soloist) has been both revelatory and solid in this series (I loved his Glazunov and his Hahn/Massenet recordings, I was impressed by his Mendelssohn).

I believe that this music suffers from the same fate as much 19th century landscape painting. It may be pretty to look at, but you've seen it all before. We are called, as children of the Greatest Artist to partake in the act of His creation-not just to play variations on a dead horse.

The horse is too long dead here for me to recommend riding it.

5 out of 5 stars Russian Romantic Renaissance........2002-04-25

This disc contains three works by two Russian composers who have lost most of the popularity that they once enjoyed. Whereas some of Arensky's works like his piano trio and suites for two pianos are performed with a certain regularity, it is only thanks to the attention that Stephen Coombs and more recently Ciprien Katsaris have given the piano works of Bortkiewicz, that the latter has been saved from complete obscurity.

Listening to this disc it is hard to come up with reasons why these pieces lack so far behind the attention that similar works by Tchaikowsky, Rachmaninov and Grieg get, since they equally share many of the elements that made these "greatest hits" such mainstays of the repertoire.

The Arensky concerto used to be a favorite piece of the young Vladimir Horowitz. Arensky's friend/kinship with Tchaikovsky shows throughout the work. The concerto starts with a broad scale maestoso that shows off Arensky's early talent in melody, piano writing and orchestration. It shouldn't come as a surprise that we're dealing with another Rimsky Korsakov pupil here. Curiously, towards the end of this movement we suddenly get an extensive quote from the introspective section of the Liszt Sonata, before closing in authentic Russian fashion. After the lyric second movement, the finale takes us in 5/4 time into the territory of Liszt nr.1 with clear elements of both Grieg and Rimsky Korsakov.

A brief Rhapsody on two Russian folksongs supplements the concerto by the same composer. If you had to guess the composer, Rachmaninov would be a likely choice.

The Bortkiewicz starts with an intimate lento, before moving into the style so common in the romantic Russian concerto. Yet, the instrumentation is very skillful and complements the lyrical piano part beautifully. In addition, there is a fine sense of harmonic development. The second movement starts out lyrical and elegant to develop into more dramatic Rachmaninov type territory. The finale has an array of Rimsky touches and could be described as Liszt and Scheherazade have a good time together.

If there were one very slight objection that one could make to the works on this cd, it would be their lack of an individual style. Yet, all pieces are well written in a pleasing style.

Coombs does a fine job and is again well assisted by the Scots. Yet, due to their similarity with the more familiar works by Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov you cannot help but wonder to what heights the likes of Gilels could have taken them. But let's not end with could haves, or should haves, but a resounding should buy.

5 out of 5 stars Arensky Piano Concerto in F minor Scherzo- Finale.......2001-08-20

This was a tough piece to get a hold of, but it was worth the wait (I took about three months chasing this one down). From the perspective of someone who plays the piano, this is a show piece that I would love play. Stephen Coombs BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra obviously had a great time putting this one together

5 out of 5 stars Romantic Obscura.......2001-04-12

If you enjoy a romantic piano concerto but feel, sadly, that you have exhausted the venue, take heart and take a listen to the two included on this CD. The Arensky concerto was composed while he was a student at the St. Petersburg Conservatory and clearly owes a debt to Tchaikovsky.

This is the first recording of the complete Bortkiewicz concerto. He too studied at the St. Petersburg Conservatory, but he also studied at the Leipzig Conservatory, where he came under the influence of the conservative German tradition.

The two piano concerti are worth visiting. Arensky's fantasia is extra icing.

This CD provides ample evidence that there are many little known composers whose work is very worthy of examination.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Recording of Short Violin Pieces.......2001-01-29

As the title of the recording suggests, these are small-scale pieces for violin and piano from various composers and musical eras. Perlman, as usual, displays great virtuosity and musicality in his interpretations. The music ranges in the technical abilities that are required of the soloist. The Fiocco Allegro and Corelli "La Follia" are decidedly easy pieces for any advanced violinist, but on this disc they are polished gems. At the other extreme, there are selections such as a vigorous Spainish Dance from Sarasate and Rimsky-Korsakov's ever popular "Flight of the Bumblebee," heard here at a breathtaking speed. The majority of the works are light pieces that can be enjoyed by any violin enthusiast. This disc is highly recommended.

    4 out of 5 stars Great Trumpet Music From Great Composers.......2001-10-01

    This CD was great! It has all sorts of cheerful, skilled trumpeting. It has everything from "Flight of the Bumblebee" to "Carnival of Venice" to "Badinerie." My personal favorite is "Carnival of Venice." I also, however, enjoy "Flight of the Bumblebee", "Badinerie," and "Allegro(the second one)." The trumpeting is very nice, and even SOUNDS challenging. The tone quality is perfect, with no static or mistakes in the CD. All in all, I would recommend this CD to anyone who likes trumpet music, anyone who likes good music, or just anyone who likes music.

      5 out of 5 stars Musically satisfying performances.......2006-11-24

      So many Cds are released that may have the finest sound and the most wonderful graphics, but when one listens to the performances, there is much left to be desired. That is why this release is so satisfying--the performances are totally musical, heartfelt, sincere and thoroughly enjoyable. Listen to any of the 3 discs and discover a world of wonderful music: French composers, Spanish or Spain-inspired compositions and Russian creations of immense beauty! Just listen to the Rachmaninov selection and marvel at what these two exceptional pianists have accomplished!
      This is one of the most thoroughly enjoyable piano recordings--all 3 discs--that I have heard in quite a long time. Never mind that the recorded sound is not quite state-of-the-art. I have heard recordings of perfomances where the sound is mucb worse but the performances demanded to be heard (Rachmnaninov himself, early Horowitz, Bfailowsky, etc.)but where I was happy to have the opportunity to listen to such great musicianship! Bravo to Madeleine Fore and Del Parkinson!! A tour-de-force!!!

      5 out of 5 stars Duo-Piano Music at its best.......2006-10-29

      Although Del Parkinson is new to this reviewer Madeleine Forte's previous peformances led me expect the very best. Anyone familiar with her earlier three CDs of the music of Ravel, Debussy and Chopin will know that she is a first-rate artist. Her sensitivity to the French repertory and the virtuosity required to perform it are well-established. So her venture into realm of Spanish and Russian piano music was easgerly anticipated. Madame Forte has not disappointed us. Her worthy partner in this venture,
      Del Parkinson, meets the demands of this music splendidly as well. Some of the works performed here are unfamiliar and these new recordings show that they deserve more frequent hearing. Let us hear more exxciting performances from this duo in the future.

      Highly recommended
